We enjoy a nice bowl of pea soup, usually despite the muddled green color. This barely cooked sweet pea version, however, sounds so tasty and looks anything but dull.

I make a really easy pea soup out of two bags of Trader Joe's frozen peas (any frozen peas work). I don't like to cook with a recipe, so I just kinda make it to taste. I cook the peas in some water and soy milk and then use an emersion blender to blend until smooth. If I want it thicker, I use less liquids, and vice versa. Spice to taste. You can add beef bones and meat too, and I've made it with cut up peices of chicken sausage too for a great, FAST, winter meal. Literally takes about ten minutes (as long as you aren't using meat).

Spring in a bowl!
I love that the recipe uses pea tendrils as well! I consider pea tendrils to be a hidden treasure at Asian markets.
I also love that the recipe suggests serving it cold. Cold soup weather though is still a little further away than LA!

Pea tendrils are my favourite vegetable!! They are hard to find though...
My favourite pea soup was at the T Café in Takashimaya; it was cold and came ina shot glass (forget what the other 2 were)... I dream of finding the recipe some day.
